lyrics

We don’t need your missiles
They’re not a detterent
It’s a show of supremacy
It’s fucking abhorrent
Lead by example
Don’t enslave with fear
Killing is illegal
But can become your career
If you carry the flag
Of the place where you’re born
Cause your countries a rose
And the others are thorns
That’s how you think, blinded
By national pride
Fuck the boundaries
Fuck the divide

I won’t
Raise the flag
I’m told
That I should
I won’t
Raise the flag
I’m told
That I should

Thousands die every day in war
Fought for land, fought for gods, for the flags they adorned
And adored, and they should all be mourned
For regardless of our views on the wars
Our compassion as human beings should not be ignored

I’m a militant
pacifist
I believe that we’re all equal
None of us deserve the risk
Of being bombed, Being gassed
By a foreign state
Fighting for superiority
Or killing out of hate

Killing out of hatred
Killing out of hatred
